Too bad. There are some stellar enterprise technology companies on the list, tucked in-between the LinkedIns and Apples and Shutterflys of the world. In fact, most of the list is arguably comprised of business, not consumer, technology firms. (Be still our enterprise-y heart!)

The fellows at Forbes created their list by plucking, from a list of 5,000 publicly-traded technology companies, profitable companies with minimum revenues of $150 million and a minimum market value of $500 million.

From that, they whittled down the list to companies with sales growth of at least 10 percent for each of the past three fiscal years, as well as over the latest 12 months, as well as for the next three to five years (estimated). The final order is arranged in descending order of growth rates. (You can read the full explanation here.)

As many as 21 of the 25 companies on their list could be considered business technology; in the interest of brevity I'd like to highlight the top 10.
